WISPS TRANSIENT
Lust:
That salty
essence enticing, just
When the vagaries of
Reasoning, asks to be harnessed
Into meaningful harmonies, only to
Be wasted in wisps transient.

    On that basis if the feeling lasts must it be love? Now I will have to think about that!

    Interesting debate there...does it mean love is never fickle...and lust will eventually burn out? Much to ponder!!

    That old inequality between meaningfulness and transcience! Well-captured! Though I must say some of the wisps in my life weren't wasteful ...

    Reasoning really goes for a toss! Lust emerges as the boss!

    "Be wasted in wisps transient" Very nicely put. I do think the inducement was meant to find the harmonious ones :)
